  • Patent number: 8815645
    Abstract: A multi-chip stacking method to reduce voids between stacked chips is revealed. A first chip is disposed on a substrate, and a plurality of first bonding wires are formed by wire bonding to electrically connect the first chip and the substrate. A second chip is disposed on an active surface of the first chip where a FOW (film over wire) adhesive is formed on a back surface of the second chip. The FOW adhesive partially encapsulates the first bonding wires and adheres to the active surface of the first chip. Then, the substrate is placed in a pressure oven to provide a positive pressure greater than one atm during thermally curing the FOW adhesive with exerted pressures. Accordingly, voids can be reduced inside the FOW adhesive during the multi-chip stacked processes where issues of poor adhesion and popcorn between chips can be avoided.

  • Patent number: 8361841
    Abstract: Disclosed is a mold array process (MAP) method to encapsulate cut edges of substrate units. A substrate strip includes a plurality of substrate units arranged in a matrix. Scribe lines are defined between adjacent substrate units and at the peripheries of the matrix where pre-cut grooves are formed along the scribe lines with a width greater than the width of the scribe lines. An encapsulant is formed on the matrix of the substrate strip to continuously encapsulate the substrate units and the scribe lines to enable the encapsulant to fill into the pre-cut grooves to further encapsulate the cut edges of the substrate units. The cut edges of the substrate units are still encapsulated by the encapsulant even after singulation processes where substrate units are singulated into individual semiconductor packages to prevent the exposure of the plated traces of the substrate units to enhance the moisture resistance capability of the semiconductor packages.
